Sorry to take so long to thank you for the info, John. Pro audio shops in this neck of the woods are very scarce. I have since pulled the tweeter and checked it out further. The break in the coil is visible. I'm ordering a replacement diaphragm today. It appears to be a simple soldering task to replace it.

After reading through the posts in this forum I have discovered that I have a pair of 1980 Heresy I's (U) with type E xover & K-77-M tweeters, raw birch finish. I bought these new while stationed in Europe for just over $200 for the pair. Recently one of the tweeters has ceased to work. I have attempted to check this with an ohmmeter & get an infinite reading. Shouldn't I get some resistance across this driver? And if this tweeter is bad, is my only option to replace it? I've gained some nice tips regarding finishing these speakers & retaining their new appearance reading through the posts here. I'm grateful for the wealth of knowledge here and those that are willing to share it. I would be most appreciative for any help in this matter.
